Summary

Eupora Elementary School serves 401 students in grades PK–5 in Eupora, Mississippi, as part of the Webster County Schools district. The school has demonstrated real potential — it earned an 88th-percentile ranking with a 4-star rating in 2023–2024 — but it has been sliding since. In the most recent ranking year, Eupora placed 165th out of 377 Mississippi elementary schools, landing in the 56th percentile with 3 stars. About 66% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch.

The most striking concern for parents is chronic absenteeism. Eupora's rate is 32%, far above the state average of 23.9% and the highest among nearby schools. The other elementary school in the same district, East Webster Elementary School, has a rate of just 17.3%, while Ackerman Elementary (9.8%), French Camp Elementary (13.0%), and Weir Elementary School (14.9%) are all well below Eupora's. With roughly one in three students chronically absent, classroom momentum suffers, and attendance is a likely driver of Eupora's recent test-score decline.

Academically, upper-elementary math deserves the most attention. Only 45.3% of 4th graders and 44.8% of 5th graders scored proficient in math, both below state averages. The sharpest single drop came in 4th grade math, which fell from 83.4% proficiency in 2023–2024 to 45.3% today. More encouraging is that nearby Ackerman Elementary — where 99.4% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch — posts 82% ELA proficiency and only 9.8% chronic absenteeism. That proves Eupora's circumstances are not the whole story. The two indicators parents should watch closely are attendance and 4th-grade math; if they improve, Eupora has a clear path back to its standout 2023–2024 form.
